So last week I travelled all the way up to London with my mum for an appointment at the US embassy (I may write a post about why soon). It's quite a journey from where I live so I fully intended to make the most of my time up there! Luckily I was done and dusted with all the serious business by 10 and we had the rest of the day to wonder London and shop to our hearts delight and our banks dismay.
And shop I definitely did!

I stayed with my aunt and uncle who live near London so we had our own personal tour guide to the best lunch and shopping spots; we wouldn't have known where to start else. My mum is a massive Selfridges fan (the tv series) so of course first stop was the real Selfridges and I wasn't complaining.
We wondered the endless rails of designers and I looked longingly at the handbags and shoes that I'd never be able to afford, whilst playing guess how much this is (we can't be the only ones who do this?). I love being able to see designers current pieces.
I found a stunning Saint Laurent leather jacket which I would've gladly taken home with me had it only had a couple less zeros on the price tag, along with this beautiful bomber jacket.
After a good couple of hours and a trip to the food court later we finally emerged with only a box full of cupcakes and a MAC lipstick (post coming soon), restraint I know!
We ventured on to Zara, H&M, Forever 21 and finally to Ed's Diner for a well earned bowl of chilli cheese fries, mmm.
The weather wasn't the best and we got caught by the rain just as we were getting off the train but all in all I love visiting London, and truly wish I could do it more often.
